Origin of Smoke On The Water

[Spudman]

Want to know where Richie Blackmore got the idea for Smoke On The Water? You'll have to watch this (http://edition.cnn.com/video/#/video/international/2007/09/24/quest.rock.n.roll.smoke.water.cnn)to find out. Also included is the British Air Guitar championships. :Dude:

There will be a quiz to see if anyone really knows the origin.
